That's bad, sorry for the inconvenience.

Can I somehow force the more > 'Windows' look? You probably didn't use window->show(argc, argv); to show the first window. This call loads the system default look, while window->show(); (without argc,argv) doesn't. You can also call Fl::get_system_colors() before showing the main window (see the link below [1]). Another nice feature is to use a scheme, e.g. Fl::scheme("gtk+") [2] before showing your window. If you're using show(argc,argv), then you can also use the commandline option -s "gtk+" or -s "plastic" to do the same without calling Fl::scheme() in your program.
